Great idea James!

I would also add GPS coordinates if available!

Well folks, if you want a map to Blue Springs just PM me with your email addy and I will send it to you. For some really weird reason SB won't upload a small file and I can't add enough garbage to get it big enough...I think it needs Viagra.

Thanks James for posting the map for us. Now we can ignore my above message.

Here is are 3 hyperlinks to 3 different quarries, including Blue Springs.

Blue Springs: they have air fills, changing areas, a van, armored car, cabin cruiser and more. $10 to get in and open 24 hours.

Mermet Springs: I have not been there, but there's the 727 from US Marshals. Also, it is in Metropolis IL. home of the largest superman statue.

Cerulean Springs: Never been. Know nothing, but hear good things.

All Courtesy of my (really great) LDS, the Louisville Debt (uh, I mean Dive) Center which I'm not affiliated with... except that I give them too much $$$$$. You can get short descriptions along with these hyperlinks through their web page, as well as read about our local mud hole, Falling Rock Park (which has a cop car among other things):

Click on "Trips" on the left and then "local quarries" at the top center.

Thanks for the links Brass Monkey... although the website for Blue Springs is broken. We Midwest Muck Divers need to visit that place and do a write-up/dive report.

The only one I got to work was Mermet.

I am going to Blue Springs on the 28th and 29th if anybody wants to join me and a few others. It's a really nice place.

http://divingden.com/Articles.asp?article_id=17 forgot about this dive hole. I have never been there and no nothing about it other than they have a school bus. and it is about 15 to 20 deep on average.

This is odd. They all work for me, and on a different computer that what I typed it on. I would maybe try to cut & paste because the addresses are right. Sorry everyone. Anyways, I might join you all sometime that weekend.

I'm splitting all of this off from the sticky. Let's keep the sticky strictly descriptions of dive sites.

Just look for a black trailor with "Funtime Scuba" on the side, I will be with them. Just ask for me, Wally. If you want to dive with us you are more than welcome. There are a couple of other SB Muck Divers that may drop in sometime Sunday.

I know you're kidding but by way of explanation:

The sticky is actually a copy of:

http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?threadid=58194&s=

and

http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?threadid=60333&s=

In both of these, comment posts have either been split off or deleted to keep the thread clean, which is a good thing.
